Description

Sure, here is the translation of the bicycle trip program from Italian to English: ```html

Day 1: Porto
Welcome to Porto, famous for its Porto wine, one of the most beautiful cities in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Immerse yourself in the authenticity of the typical neighborhoods and their people, the over 150 monuments, and the flavors that define its identity.
Conclude the day by toasting with the excellent wine named after the city.

Day 2: Porto – Furadouro (42 km; +213 m)
Today you will leave the hustle and bustle of the city to reach the peace and tranquility of the Atlantic coast. You will ride through numerous small towns nestled along the coast and pine forests. The day ends in Furadouro, a hospitable city renowned for its excellent fish.

Day 3: Furadouro – Aveiro (41 km; +119 m)
Today's stage is a pleasant ride through the Protected Natural Reserve of the dunes of São Jacinto. This stage wouldn't be complete without a visit to Costa Nova, a small town with its picturesque center of colorful striped houses. If you have time, you can take a trip on a Moliceiro, the brightly painted wooden boats traditionally used for collecting seaweed, along the canals that have given Aveiro the name Portuguese Venice. Don't miss a visit to the salt flats where you can enjoy the wonderful soothing properties of sea salt while dipping your feet in small basins.

Day 4: Aveiro – Figueira da Foz (35 km; +94 m)
Today's stage is a great mix of beaches, pine forests, and riverside trails. You will arrive at Mira, a small fishing village where the main activity is artisanal fishing with colorful boats once pulled by oxen. You will surely be inspired by the beautiful colorful striped houses and the friendly locals. Observe the golden effect of the sun on the sand, the sea, the vegetation, and the brightness of the contrasting colors across the landscape. Then, be sure to visit the fantastic fishing village of Praia de Mira to discover the typical colorful wooden houses called palheiros, and indulge in the fantastic fresh fish specialties you will find here. A collective transfer will take you to Figueira da Foz, the ideal destination for a rest.

Day 5: Figueira da Foz – Nazaré (81 km; +529 m)
This stage will take you along the Portuguese silver coast and through the Pinhal de Leiria, the great pine forest planted in the 15th century to supply wood for the caravels on which the Portuguese explorers sailed the seven seas. The path follows a bike lane along the Estrada Atlântica crossing São Pedro de Moel, an elegant seaside resort located in a clearing in the forest, arriving in Nazaré. Famous for surfing, the splendid beach is bounded to the north by steep cliffs and to the south by a small stream. Try fishing off the rocks near the lighthouse where the cliffs attract several species of tasty fish, particularly sea bass and bream. From November to March, this is the international surfing sanctuary, with the famous giant waves that attract thousands of brave surfers each year.

Day 6: Nazaré – Óbidos (41 km; +590 m)
Today you will visit two cities loved by Portuguese visitors: Nazaré and Obidos. Nazaré, perhaps the most famous fishing town in Portugal, also known for its beautiful beach, is unique in many aspects. Its old-time atmosphere, the cheerfulness in the air, and the long-standing traditions make it a special place to visit. The narrow painted wooden fishing boats with their high, curved bows are reminiscent of the vessels of the Phoenicians, who first visited the area. Another unique tradition is the seven-layer skirts still worn by the fisherwomen, their wooden clogs, and predominantly black veils. From the top of the high cliff overlooking the beach, the view of the sea is breathtaking. Óbidos, your final destination today, is a charming fortified town that feels like a medieval film set. The city has been carefully preserved, and its inhabitants are proud to maintain the architectural style of past centuries, the monuments, the winding streets, and the white houses with flower-filled windows and terraces. The walls covered with 18th-century blue tiles, inside the southern gate that serves as the main entrance, are particularly impressive.

Day 7: Óbidos – Lisbon
After breakfast, you will leave your bikes at the hotel and a transfer will take you to your hotel in Lisbon where, after check-in, you will have plenty of time to explore the city. Lisbon is a romantic city open to the sea, which has always shaped its destiny. Start with two historic monuments, close to each other, on the banks of the Tagus: the Belem Tower and the Jeronimos Monastery. Both World Heritage sites are known for the beauty of their Manueline architecture. Alfama, Lisbon's oldest district, is a must-see. Spread over the southeastern slope of the hill crowned by St. George's Castle, the picturesque neighborhood is made up of a maze of narrow streets, winding alleys, and steep staircases. Bairro Alto, a picturesque popular quarter from the 16th century, has traditionally been the bohemian haunt of artists and writers. Its streets are quiet during the day but are transformed at night by the vibrant nightlife of the city. Behind the colorful and graffiti-covered facades, you will find a variety of traditional and international restaurants, Fado houses full of tourists, and a multitude of bars and shops that stay open late into the night.

Day 8: Departure
After breakfast, transfer to Lisbon airport and end of the tour.
